I don't know anything about Harry Potter. I've never seen a single movie, I've never read a single book. I know it's a big deal and I respect that. I also know that there is a new HP movie out and though I won't be going to see it, I almost did by mistake. See, the print ad for the new movie has Harry standing next to what looks like Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings. I LOVE The Lord of the Rings (I'm such a nerd) and so when I see this ad (which I have a lot) I keep thinking there is some cool new LOTR thing out that I must go see immediately. I thought that perhaps Sir Ian McKellen (who is Gandalf) was possibly in the HP movies, but I checked IMDB and he is not. I say it's another case of the old bait and switch. Nice move, HP.
So yesterday I had a bad stomach ache (and other side effects). So I was resigned to the couch most of the day. Luckily for me Jamie found a Brady Bunch marathon that we could watch. I was mesmerized. It's not that I was overly interested in the plot or the characters, but the clothes! These episodes were from the later years when the kids are more "grown up" and the wardrobes are unbelievable. I wish all of those trends were in style and available at Target. From the short dresses, to the colors, the prints, the wide collars, and OMG, Peter had on this to die for double breasted, totally 70's sport coat. It was love at first sight. The only thing that should never come back is Carol Brady's feathered she-mullet. Unfortunately for humanity I saw a few tonight at the Braves game.
AND, if you still subscribe (or pick up) the Atlanta Journal Constitution, I am on page D6 of the Business section today. It's a totally fabu article about how awesome I am and how I'm unemployed and my story and this fairly decent picture of me. The picture that was included is the one above. Judge for yourself. I couldn't find the article online, but tomorrow (or the next day) I will try to scan it so I can post it here.
Kisses, I'm off to watch a Daisy of Love clip show (oy).
